After a client review of the design team and the appointment of HED, the resulting design provides subtle changes in the landscape with a more open campus atmosphere characterised by grid planting of Birch and Red Maple in expansive lawn.

 

Associated with a new café, a timber deck extends over a slate pool with serpentine steel water pipes internally illuminated by fibreoptics. The café and space around it complement the existing lake and add value to the landscape.
